Some great sneak peek pics of Callaway's new X Hot Irons (Pro and Non-Pro) and fairway woods for 2013. No driver yet, but stay tuned.

Tough to always tell from just looking at pics but the irons look like a nice upgrade from previous models. Fairway woods look sexy with the black matte crown. What do you guys think?

Minus the X design on the back, it looks very similar to the AP1 & 2. A topline pic would be nice.

The matte black crown on the woods is nice... It's one thing that I really liked about the i20 when I saw it and this looks like a pretty similar finish.

I like the look of the fairway wood. I think they did a nice job on that design.

Is it black or is it gray? It could be the lighting making it gray but I'm not sure. I do like the sole design of the woods. Very subtle

For some reason OEM's rarely take address pics, and when they do it looks terrible. Club face looks hooded or it's a topline shot with the club head of the ground. Hopefully I can share a few topline pics in a couple weeks.

I have always played Callaways, but this last round with the razer X was not up to par for my liking but like the new woods. Have to wonder what if anything was really changed this year in performace. I guess only time will tell if they really got a hit, to bad looking at new irons and Callaway was not on the list for the first time.

Not a huge fan of the look of the woods! The irons look pretty nice, not as sweet as the new 2013 razr forged! I play the Diablo forged and absolutely love them!
